[vegtable newbie!]

Thanks

A garage is a perfectly 'normal' place to put a freeer if it is not in use for a car or other stuff. Hopefully it is fully waterproofed? Mine is a little leaky so would not be great!

If your are renting your garage away from your home there may be restrictions - so check your lease.

I would say yes. My lovely mum in law has had one in her garage for years. No probs. Bernie aka DDL

Garage is attached to house and fully waterproofed, we just wondered if the garage would get to hot for it - yes probably a stupid thought - sorry!!!!

A boss of mine many (yeah, ok, too many) years ago told me the only 'stupid' question is the one you don't ask.

Many of us here 'may' already know the answer but if you don't.....well we're here to help.

Remember - one day - you may well be the one with the answers for us! Enjoy your extra storage facility!

Hi if you are going to buy from the big electrical chains on the details of each model it should say if suitable for outbuildings mine did I think it is used on the chest freezers

You need to be carful with auto defrosting units....these are normally Fridge Freezer.

They have a tendancy to kickin the defrosting if the temp is too low. So in a garage in winter the can defrost them selves.

You may be best getting a second hand unit with out defrost.
